* HypotheticalCasting: In Website/{{Usenet}} discussion, Creator/TerryPratchett suggested Creator/PetePostlethwaite as his conception of Sir Sam Vimes and Creator/JamesSpader for Havelock Vetinari. He also reportedly specified "the bad guy from ''Film/DieHard''" (Creator/AlanRickman) for the role of Vetinari.

** ''Scouting For Trolls'' was mentioned by Sir Terry in an interview as a possible future book. Some background material has emerged -- scouting is extant in Ankh-Morpork according to one of the squibs in the '' A Blink of the Screen'' collection and a scene where Carrot is running a scout troop comprising two rival gangs appears in ''Jingo''. A minor character in ''Raising Steam'' is mentioned to be a scout.
** ''Raising Taxes'' -- at the end of ''Making Money'' Vetinari and Drumknott have a brief conversation about the need for reform of Ankh-Morpork's archaic tax system and Moist von Lipwig is mooted as a possible architect. The title was mentioned by Sir Terry during promotional tours for ''Making Money'' but the book appears to have been radically reworked into ''Raising Steam'' instead.
** ''Running Water'' -- mentioned once by Terry at a book festival as a potential book featuring Moist von Lipwig getting into either the logging industry, the canal industry or the piped water supply industry depending on which rumour is correct.
** The afterword of ''The Shepherd's Crown'' mentions some other ideas.
*** ''Twilight Canyons'' -- a group of elderly people solve a missing treasure mystery and foil the rise of a dark lord despite failing memories.
*** ''The Dark Incontinent'' -- presumably would have done for Africa what ''The Last Continent'' did for Australia with carnivorous plants and a crystal cave. At the last Discworld Convention he attended, Terry commented that he'd worked out how to do it without being offensive or patronising and it would involve parody "but probably not in the way you expect".
*** An unnamed book about Constable Feeney from ''Snuff'' investigating a whodunnit amongst the goblins.
*** An unnamed sequel to ''The Amazing Maurice and his Educated Rodents'' detailing his adventures as a ship's cat.
